Patient Review 1:

I have been looking for a solution to my canker sores and I am extremely happy to say that Starbrite dental is the best thing that has ever happened to me.I have had canker sores since I was young enough to remember and I have never found a good treatment to rid of the pain or shorten the healing time. I have done a lot of research on the web and by luck I found out about Dr Lokhandwala. I called to see if I can get an appointment on the same day (Sat) and to my surprise the assistant was extremely helpful in facilitating me for a walk-in.Dr. Lokhandwala was not available due to some seminar so I was attended by another dentist who was extremely gentle and very corteous. She presented me with 2 options to treat my canker sores and asked a brief history about them. Since I had about 6 canker sores, some were too close to my throat they did not want to touch but I had a large one on my tongue and several smaller ones around my inner lip and gum. The tongue and gum were treated chemically and THEY WENT AWAY the following day!!! The other 2 were laser and they did not improve so I know what to request the next time I get them. I also received a follow-up call on the effectiveness. I WILL RECOMMEND EVERYONE!

Patient Review 2:

Great results from invisalign.I got invisalign because I didn't want any teeth pulled, not because I thought I was to cool for braces! Something happened to me with a pulled tooth before Dr. Lokhandwala (infected mouth) I ain't going to lie I was chicken to have 4 teeth pulled. Great choice and great results with invisalign. It was worth the price, and would do it over again. The staff is the best west of the Mississippi make no mistake, and the doctor's have hands like angels. Thanks for the smile!
Treatment Length with Dr. Lokhandwala: years.

Patient Review 3:

When my daughter broke her tooth in a fall, our local dentist referred us to a dentist who could do the implant she required. The price was so high, and we knew little of the procedure, so we decided to do a little research. We went to UCSF as part of the search for information. We discovered Dr. Lokhandwala from her internet site. After a phone call speaking directly with her, we realized she was among the most knowledgeable dentists around. The fee was less than all of the others. We come from Walnut Creek, because we believe she is the best dentist with the best staff. Every question or concern is answered clearly so that we can understand. You can trust everyone in that office.
About Hygienist: We always receive competent service from a considerate hygienist. You can be assured your comfort is their concern.
Treatment Length with Dr. Lokhandwala: about two years.

Dr. Lokhandwala has done an amazing job at making me happy and satisfied with my smile. After living in self conciousness that i can't smile because everyone will look at my teeth i finally feel free to smile all the time! Her work turned out very professional and everyone compliments me now! Definitly recommend her for veeners to others. It was a very quick procedure and i'm very happy with it! = D Her front desk receptionist were extremley nice and took care of me along the process. Financing was okay, they helped me sign up for care credit and i make $135 payments a month for 12 monthes intrest free! Not bad, i should say. It is well worth the cost to be able to feel good about my smile 24-7
Treatment Length with Dr. Lokhandwala: 2 monthes.

Patient Review 5:

Dr. Lokhandwala is the best thing to happen to dentistry! I started seeing her a year ago after many years of not going to the dentist out of fear. I am proud to say that after starting out with her with using conscious sedation and nitrous oxide, I am no longer afraid to go without either. I had no pain with the deep cleaning, numerous filling replacements, new fillings, a crown or four wisdom teeth being pulled. She works with you in every aspect from fear to cost. Over the past year she has treated me like I was her only patient. She is precise, calming, gentle and cares about your whole experience.The girls at the front desk, the hygienists and the other dentist in the office are all genuinely nice. They make sure I always know what I will be paying, there is never any surprises with billing. The hygienists are always as caring and gentle as Dr. Lokhandwala.I am so excited that I will never again be afraid of getting the dental attention I need!!
About Hygienist: The hygienists are always as caring and gentle as Dr. Lokhandwala.

Patient Review 6:

She is the most gentle and caring doctor I have ever known! She is highly skilled and precise. I use to be terrified of going to the dentist because of the painful shots. When I went to Dr. Lokandwala, she had this calm soothing voice and demeanor that totally relaxed me. The best part is that I barely felt the shots! The quality of my dental work surpassed any that I have ever had. I was so impressed with her and her staff , that I switched from my family dentist of many years to Dr. Lokandwala. You cannot ask for a better dentist or person. I am no longer afraid to go to the dentist now. THANK YOU, DR. LOKHANDWALA.
About Hygienist: The dental hygienist was sweet and very personnable not like some who just stand there like mute statues. She was very friendly and caring.
Treatment Length with Dr. Lokhandwala: Months.

Patient Review 7:

My dad in his late 70's was made to glue his broken dentures together, as he was told he could not get new ones until he had bone surgery. I ask Dr. Lokhandwala if she could help my father. She not only saw him that same day, but she gave him hope. In a couple of days my Dad had his new teeth and they have been great ever since. No surgery just good work from Dr. Lokhandwala. She is willing to work with you and come up with great ideas on how to make you comfortable. I have moved to Oregon but I still go to Dr. Lokhandwala for my dentist work. She will be doing my dental implants for me. I cannot thank her enough for what she has done for my father. She is so nice that she finds time to take care of me when I am in town. She is also great at getting things done fast. If you go to her you will never want to have another dentist look at you again. Thank you, Gail Fetro

I am pleased to have found StarBrite Dental online! I live in SJ and drive out here to see them but it's worth it!They're friendly and make my stress and anxiety reduced to almost nothing. (for me that's a major plus because dental visits always cause me TONS of anxiety)Being a gagger I usually dread going to see dentist due to my previous bad experiences with others and had been putting off finding a new dentist for 2 yrs. I found SBD online and thought I'd give them a try. The Dentist are so friendly and they explain to you in detail what needs to be done and why. Even the staff are friendly and helpful! I've never had an experiece like this before, I have to honestly say that this was the best dental experience I've had so far!
Treatment Length with Dr. Lokhandwala: 15 days.

Patient Review 11:

I've had terrible experieneces with other local dentists who were truly bad at their craft or bedside manner.Dr. Lokhandwala's enitre office is genuinely polite, kind, relaxed, and caring. They do not rush your work or belittle your concerns, and use the full variety of numbing agents so you won't have to worry (like I did) about being fully numb. They constantly make sure you are in no pain, and tell you what is going on so you are never surprised. If you want to be treated with the utmost respect and kindness, as well as have a doctor who is acutely aware of the aesthetic aspects of your dental work as well as the functional repair, Dr. Lokhandwala is your best bet. She is also great at showing you what you may need done in the future without pushing or guilting you into more (and potentially expensive) work.
Treatment Length with Dr. Lokhandwala: 8 months.

Patient Review 12:

I went to my first dental checkup. Dr. Munira noticed that i am tongue-tied. She offered severing my frenulum from the tip of my tongue to the base of the tongue. I was excited and accepted it. The process took about 15 minutes and i felt perfectly fine during the process. I am thoroughly impressed with Dr. Munira's overall knowledge about the dentistry and mouth parts. The pictures of my teeth taken by Sunitha were also great. Dr. Munira was very friendly in explaining the facts about my teeth and she offered me various options and allowed me to take some time to arrive at my best option. Overall, i certainly recommend Dr. Munira for anyone who wants to take good care of their dental health.
Treatment Length with Dr. Lokhandwala: 7 days.

Patient Review 13:

Based on a co-worker's recommendation from my husband's work, I chose Dr. Lokhandwala to install my implants. It is a somewhat new and complicated procedure. Since I had no such experience and did not know how well everything would work, I decided to install only one implant at my first surgery, though I needed two implants. The whole procedure (preparation, anesthesia, surgery itself) took about 2 hours and for the most part was painless. To my surprise, the post-surgery recovery was virtually painless too, only a minor discomfort for a few days, no bleeding, swelling or bruises. There was no need to take antibiotics or use painkillers. I healed well and fast. If I knew I would go through this kind of experience, I would definitely install both implants at once. I believe Dr. Lokhandwala did an excellent job. She undoubtedly deserves to be chosen as your doctor for implant installation.
Treatment Length with Dr. Lokhandwala: 4 months.

Patient Review 15:

I got all my wisdom teeth removed in 2 phases and She did an amazing job. I won't say it was painless :) but I recovered without any issues and back in action in few days. I didn't even have to go for the followup visits as the work done was clean, I just verified few things over phone.Also I got the extraction done in 2 phases to put it under 2 financial year to reduce the out of pocket expense. That saved me some money for sure.And they are pretty prompt on appointments as I don't like to sit outside for long and customer service is top class.

The office staff is very nice and friendly. When I first came to Dr. Lokhandwala I was an EXTREMELY HIGH ANXIETY patient. She actually went back to school to learn to give me "sleep dentistry". Since that time I have been able to use this service when I need it and it has worked very well for me. I very much appreciate that, and the Dr. is a very nice, personable person. I hope you all do well and prosper.

I had two teeth pulled and had dental implants put it where the teeth had been removed.It was, for the most part, surprisingly painless! Dr. Lokhandwala and her assistants were gentle, attentive and very nice. It was very easy scheduling appointments, and they're very helpful if you have any questions. I would definitely recommend them for any dental work you might need!!

I would strongly recommend Dr.Lokhandwala's services. I was delighted by the treatment I received by the doctor and her staff. I felt constant concern for my well-being during the visit. I have been hesitant to visit dentists except for emergencies based on my past experiences with other dentists. After Dr.Munira's treatment, I no longer feel this way and look forward to periodic visits for preventive care of my teeth at her clinic.Best wishes,Yaseen
